jdavidb's Journal: The CRT is dying

And it's affecting arcade restoration and emulation cabinet building.

Open source will fix it, though

Well, one thing most people forget is that MOST CRTs can be rehabbed and refurbished. It is labor intensive, but it can be done. I used to have an old Sony CRT projector and when it finally died, I had it refurbished for about $3000. New ones would cost $50,000 (consider it can still do 2048x1920 resolution!) or more, maybe even double that now.
